Pictures, Pictures, Pictures - Candid Photography in the 20s and 30s

Documentary looking at some of the early photojournalists and their photographs, particularly the world of American tabloids in the 1920s where photographers would do anything to get a picture. Tony Berardi who took a graphic photograph of the bodies after the St Valentine's Day Massacre talks about it and what his feelings were at the time. Besides the sensational shock-horror type of photographs the programme also considers the start of candid shots of politicians and the effects that had.
